On Tuesday’s edition of “Good Morning Britain,” Watergate reporter Carl Bernstein laid into President Donald Trump, warning that he would let the country burn to save his political fortunes.

“Donald Trump has commanded the allegiance of perhaps 40% of our electorate through his presidency, despite all the outrages, despite the acts of demonstrable incompetence, despite the fact that he is a racist in terms of both his words and his acts,” said Bernstein. “This is an extraordinary situation.”

1. "...despite the fact that he is a racist..."

No Carl, he owns his 35% because he is a brazen racist.

2. Hell, he will let it go up in flames, if only to feed his ego and narcissism.

3. He'll cause bad things to happen intentionally

Because he lost as revenge hurting even his own supporters. That's his mo in business deals, he gets changes from the original deal helping him, or he sabotages the deal hurting others. He may be already doing things because he knows he's already losing badly, so expect a lot more threats claiming others will hurt us, when it'll be from him causing bad things to happen to us.

4. If he *loses* he'll burn it all down

That's pretty much a given.
